Police Scotland’s Annual Police Plan was launched today outlining how police services will be delivered during 2017-2018 and how this will accord with the Force’s long-term strategic vision.
The 2017-2018 Annual Police Plan outlines police operational priorities while marking Police Scotland’s the start of the long-term journey of organisational transformation through the 2026 Programme – which aims to transform the police service incrementally over the next 10 years.
This strategy, which is currently open for public consultation, provides the opportunity to achieve long-term sustainability and our vision of “sustained excellence in service and protection”.
Chief Constable Phil Gormley said: “I am very much looking forward to delivering the priorities outlined in the Annual Police Plan 2017-2018.
“My sense is that communities throughout Scotland support policing and want us to succeed. With the continued hard work and dedication of all staff, Police Scotland will continue to deliver a service of which communities can be proud.
“I would also encourage anyone who has not yet responded to the 2026 strategy to take part and work with Police Scotland to help empower all of us to develop effective partnerships, innovate, solve problems and can continue to protect the public from harm.”
